Hi Randy
I found this problem at work, and a workaround for it.
It seems that after upgrading to Panther, when folks try to sign on to their
dial-up ISP, the Mac finds their (USB or serial) modem but reports "No Modem
Found."
The modem shows up as a device in Apple's System Profiler (and its listed in
their NETWORK System Preferences), but the Mac won't use it.
I have found that if you (1) disconnect the modem from the computer and
restart the Mac, then (2) open NETWORK System Preferences, and select Network
Port
Configurations from the SHOW menu, now (3) delete the device (modem) from the
list and restart the Mac again. Last (4), reinstall the modem per
manufacturers instruction.
Now when the modem shows up as "new" device detected when you resetup the
NETWORK System Preferences, the modem works fine, again.
I don't know why this works, but it does.
